=head1 NAME
perlclib - Internal replacements for standard C library functions
=head1 DESCRIPTION
One thing Perl porters should note is that F doesn't tend to use that
much of the C standard library internally; you'll see very little use of,
for example, the F functions in there. This is because Perl
tends to reimplement or abstract standard library functions, so that we
know exactly how they're going to operate.
This is a reference card for people who are familiar with the C library
and who want to do things the Perl way; to tell them which functions
they ought to use instead of the more normal C functions.
